The unity existing among the teachers the consummation of two weeks of negotiations augurs weU for the passage of the Downing-Moffatt Bill. Heretofore the members of the Legislature expressed the fullest sympathy with the teachers in their desire to eliminate the deathbed gamble from the pension law, but found it difficult to decide which bill proposed the better solution of the deathbed gamble. Hence the presentation of a single measure supported by all the teachers is most welcome to the members ot the Legislature.

With a clash between Mayor Walker and several of Uie boro presidents over the bill advocated by Edward M. Bassett to create a permanent city planning board, an Important meeting of the Board of Estimate, sitting as the Committee of the Whole, came to a turbulent ending yesterday. But before the end came the board had definitely committed the city to the construction of the Trlboro Bridge and Narrows Tunnel, had considered the Equitable bus franchise muddle, had decided to survey all data In hand relative to transit unification In anticipation of going ahead with a definite program as soon as the Untermyer control bill Is passed at Albany, and had heard a charge of "land grabbing" made against the New York Central Railroad.

Boro President! Protest. Boro Presidents Byrne of Brooklyn and Miller of Manhattan, as well as William J. Flynn, Bronx Commissioner of Public Works, wha represented Boro President Bruckner, revolted openly against the Mayor's advocacy ot the Bassett proposal. Their contention Is that the bill would deprive them of their authority and Initiative and their constituents of the right of boro autonomy. The chief objection Is that 13 votes in the Board of Estimate would be necessary to overrule any project designed by the proposed planning commission.

Savon of Pork Barrel, Says Mayor. "It strikes me as being an Improvement on the present system," said the Mayor, "whereby paving funds are divided by Boro Presidents. Such funds now are being split on a neighborhood piecemeal basis that savors strongly of the pork barrel." "Not at all," shouted Mr. Byrne. "That is not so.

Who could do a better Job In the matter of street paving than the Boro Presidents who know the streets?" Mr. Miller demanded an Immediate roll call on the proposal but the Mayor announced that the matter was laid over for two weeks. In connection with transit unification, the Mayor said he would ask the Transit Commission and Board of Transportation to submit to the board all valuation data in their possession on I. R. T.

and B. M. T. properties capable of being taken into a unified system, either by recapture or negotiation. Is Equitable Eliminated? In the Equitable bus matter, Edmund L.
